Re: Henglong leopard 2 pro version winter camo
Cool, I hope all is well with it
It actually looks very nice
As you are basically showing us what has come out of the box with your opinions, like a review.
I think I'll move this to Un-Boxing

Re: Henglong leopard 2 pro version winter camo
GrayAce: that's exactly the version I bought! I think it is the best version of a modern MBT I have seen from HengLong. Some time ago, I rewrote the operating instructions for the Haya Centurion hoping to make them easier to read. (viewtopic.php?p=340964&hilit=Centurion#p340964) The instructions were arranged by the control (i.e. lever or button). I arranged them by the function (e.g. turn lights on; turn on smoke unit; change speed range). I now think the same for the relatively new Heng Long 7.0/7.1 MFU would be useful.
When I get to the Leopard in this camouflage, I will need to do some homework. For just one simple example: what color should the sprockets, idler, and wheels be? Will they be white..? white/gray/black camouflage..? something else entirely..?

Nice tank.
Looks like it's ready to defend the Fulda Gap; if it still needed defending.
Keep us posted.

Re: Henglong leopard 2 pro version winter camo
That is a very nice Leopard 2A6 in Winter Camo, but I feel that Heng Long could step up to the plate by adding all the glass in the Periscopes, the Loaders Thermal Sight and the Commanders Thermal Sight, and it would bring it up to the IDF Merkava MKIV that has got this, as it does look more functional and closer to Hobby Grade than just a Toy.
The same could be done with all of Heng Long Modern MBT's.
